If you guys are planning something for this weekend/Monday (31st - 3rdish) I can be available (hooray for 4 day weekends!) My pally (holy/prot) could use the drops from Fester/Rot for his Shadowmourne quest (not sure what it takes to then be on the part of what, 1k kills?) if nobody else needs them. Could make for a fun expirement to see how the new trees play as well.

...seriously? I've tried to add RealID friends from the US onto my EU side WoW account with no luck. Although I was using e-mail addresses, but I'm not sure how using battletags would change that. D3 is different from WoW though... since you can easily flip regions. Hmmm...

January – The Cray-1, the first commercially developed supercomputer, is released by Seymour Cray's Cray Research.April 1 - Apple Computer Company is formed by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.July 20 – Viking program: The Viking 1 lander successfully lands on Mars.November 26 - Microsoft is officially registered with the Office of the Secretary of the State of New Mexico.

Some of the few "good" things that happened that year. Not sure if 1976 was just a bad year, or people only tend to remember/document the bad things. I'd be more inclined to believe the latter is true.

Side note: Wikipedia links are dangerous. I go looking at Theck's link to see if anything "mathy" was associated with the year, and end up reading about whale sharks...
